New Google Service - goog411

… currently US only, Dial from any phone 800 GOOG 411 (1-800-466-4411). Google’s new 411 service is free, fast and easy to use. Give it a try now and see how simple it is to find and connect with local businesses for free.

They did it again - create something which makes life easier and more enjoyable. Place it in the market space, look what customers are doing with it and get their feedback. Then when it’s accepted etcetera - think about how to make money with it.

FAQ: the more important ones …

How much does it cost?

It’s free. Google doesn’t charge you for the information or for connecting you to the business you’re looking for. Keep in mind, though, that your telephone company may apply regular charges for making a phone call or receiving an SMS.

Will you share my phone number with businesses or telemarketers?

Absolutely not. We don’t share your information with anyone, including the business you’re trying to reach. Once we connect you to the business, you’re no longer on our service, and we’re no longer involved in the call. For further details, please read our Privacy Policy.

What information does Google collect when I use the service?

We only collect information necessary to improve our users’ experience and improve the service. For further details, please read our Privacy Policy.

Can I advertise on this service?

At this point, we do not have advertising opportunities for this service.

I’ll have a look at their Privacy Policy later - not this evening. Never read them. Because I can still live without Google Services.

Did you had a look so far at their mobile section and the products? It’s like internet - it’s convergence in the communications sector. Convergence is happening.

Myth TV, Triple e Laptop and the ASUStek way, convergence of devices, Intels Viiv is taking a dive. I wrote about it in various ways and views of the tech, communications and entertainment sector.

I like this way to make our life easier.
